About this project

Ever Gauzy is an open-source business management platform aimed at collaborative, on-demand and sharing-economy organizations. It bundles several back-office domains into one system: enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management, human resource management, applicant tracking, and work/project management, plus employee time, activity and productivity tracking. Documented functional areas include a dashboard with company income/expense and bonus metrics, time tracking and timesheets, employee and contractor records with rates, onboarding, candidate interviews, contacts and leads, schedules and appointments, projects and tasks, goals/KPIs/OKRs, sales pipelines, proposals, accounting with invoicing and estimates, billing and payments, income/expense management, time-off and approvals, inventory, equipment sharing, multi-organization management, departments and teams, clients and vendors, a help center/knowledge base, tags, reports and analytics, public organization/employee pages, integrations (Upwork, HubStaff and others), email history and templates, data import/export, roles and permissions, multi-currency and multi-language support, and multiple UI themes. The platform exposes headless APIs (documented at api.gauzy.co/docs) and ships a web UI plus desktop applications. A Gauzy Server package bundles the API, SQLite or external PostgreSQL, and the frontend for small to medium organizations; a Desktop App runs UI, API and database locally or connects to a server; a Desktop Timer App focuses on time and activity tracking with screenshots and activity monitoring. Technology stack: TypeScript, Node.js with NestJS, Nx/Lerna, Angular with RxJS and ngx-admin, and TypeORM/MikroORM/Knex for data access. SQLite is the default for demos; PostgreSQL or MySQL are recommended for production, with other databases possible through the ORMs. Deployment options include Docker Compose (demo, production and build variants), Kubernetes with provided configurations, Terraform modules, Helm charts, Pulumi, DigitalOcean App Platform and Droplets, and one-click templates for RepoCloud and Easypanel. Optional infrastructure components include PostgreSQL, Pgweb, OpenSearch and OpenSearch Dashboards, Dejavu, MinIO, Jitsu, Redis, Cube and Zipkin. The README gives explicit production hardening guidance: set strong unique JWT and session secrets, set non-default demo admin/employee passwords before first boot, configure TRUST_PROXY and optionally Cloudflare handling for correct rate limiting, enable Redis when running multiple API replicas, and tune per-account failed-login lockout settings. Demo credentials are documented for local/demo use only. The project is licensed under AGPL v3 and links to documentation, a wiki, a demo instance, downloads, and community channels (Slack, Discord, Gitter).
